There is a familiar feel to Lindows and you know most of the icons by sight and familiarity. If you are ever in any doubt, just hit that Lifejacket icon and it helps you through. The explorer is customisable, in fact most of the OS is customisable and there are plenty of options there to make it look, feel and work the way you want it to. My feeling is that Lindows OS 3.0 is far more customisable than any OS I have seen so far.
